Comp Picks is a season-long, weekly series that looks at the incoming rookie class from all angles, tying everything together with an NFL player comparison (or a combination of players) to contextualize upside and risk.
Background
Junior, 6'0, 175 lbs
Jordan Addison emerged significantly during the 2021 college football season, but his background suggested that shouldn't have come as a surprise. Addison ranked as the 10th-best athlete recruit in the 2020 class. His four-star status made him the most highly-touted Pittsburgh enrollee, which was apparent with his early success. He accumulated 666 yards on 60 receptions as a true freshman, leading the team in both categories and touchdowns. But his 2021 Biletnikoff Award-winning campaign put him on the national radar, as Addison caught 100 balls in fourteen games for 1,593 yards and 17 touchdowns while adding another 56 yards and a single touchdown on the ground. He was the best receiver in the nation, teaming up with Kenny Pickett for a dynamic passing attack en route to an ACC title. Addison took advantage of the transfer portal this offseason, packing his bags and heading to Southern California to play for Lincoln Riley at USC. Through the first three games of 2022, his 14-game pace is 84 receptions for 1,377 yards and 23 touchdowns.
